The precepts function to keep a monk/nun focused on their primary job, which is to awaken from delusion. Lay followers of Buddhism typically take the Five Precepts - a basic set of guidelines that help us act in ways that promote happiness and reduce suffering. Here's a good discussion of the Five Precepts:
